well its not just pets going missing

our glorious goberment, outsourced ankle tracking crims to a private firm, one of many I think, the news said.

 

Anyway this one has gone bust and tracking shut down, so some 16 crims could be anywhere untraceable for the last two weeks.

 

got to love government privatising everything even tracking crims on bail or avo's 

 

seems to be working as well as the microchip registers

Thanks for the reminder! These changes seem like a big step forward in ensuring better welfare for dogs and more accountability for breeders. The mandatory breeder ID and lifetime litter cap should help prevent unethical breeding. It’ll be interesting to see how these rules impact the industry. Appreciate the info—definitely worth keeping an eye on! If you are looking for a trustworthy academic online essay writing service, I highly recommend DoMyPaper, which is available at domypaper.com They provide high-quality papers with proper citations and formatting. My friend used their service for her thesis and received excellent feedback from her professor. It's definitely worth checking out!

Fenbendazole, Pyrantel, Moxidectin, and Milbemycin are all used to get rid of hookworm, so rotation is a viable strategy, along with only treating when required.

Thank you.

Not excusing the neighbour's behaviour, but who lets their dogs run around the neighbourhood unsupervised? What if the issue wasn't the neighbour doing something to the dogs that trespassed into his yard, but they got hit by a car or the like?

 

Personally, I'm hoping the dogs' owners are fined for letting their dogs roam unsupervised in public, and that they learn that their own actions led to this tragic incident. If they hadn't let their dogs out to roam unsupervised, then it would never have happened, yes?

I agree with you.

Squishy Face Rescue in SEQ is currently under attack too. They do most of their communicating on FB.

 

Back when I was adminning Craft for Paws I got targeted too. Even though we were mainly selling and fundraising I would  post picks of animals in need as part of our engagement with our thousands of supporters. Someone got in  a huff about something (a vegan issue from  memory) and reported me when she wasn't satisfied at my response.  So all last year I was being banned on a weekly basis for things like posting too fast or repetitive posts. The other admin never had an issue and since the  page shut down I've not had an issue on my own page either. There is noone to contact to try and explain the situation.

 

I feel like AI is quite quickly taking over many things and it worries me and makes me feel old. I don't want any more human touch removed from the world.

You are right.

One who health tests ,breeds for correct breed temperament & ideally knows how to pick the pup that shows the best potential for the role is going to need to be trained for but also be the most suitable match for you to live with & be able to enrich its dog needs .
Borders certainly are not for every person .

As the dog will need to be accredited to be an assistance dog consider touching base with the people you have approached to get the dog through its official journey & what they deem important as part of the selection process to its job role 

You are right.

And this is why no dog should ever be left inside a vehicle... even with the air conditioning left on.

 

When I was a vet nursing student, we had a dog brought in that had been left in a car with the air-con on, but the dog had somehow managed to bump the control on the console and switched it from cooling to heating... in summer in Sydney. We could not revive the dog. And the worst part was that the RSPCA had been alerted to the dog being in distress, but had refused to attend... and by the time the police got there soon after, the dog was already too far gone to save. The police told us to NOT engage with RSPCA if they came wanting to prosecute the owner after the fact - the police were going to do that and they were not going to do any deals for any lesser charge where the owner would get off with a slap on the wrist - he was going to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law by police. RSPCA did come to our clinic and were quite threatening to us, demanding we hand them the dog's body and all records relating to it's injuries, and we had to call the police to come and tell them to back the heck off.

 

Fly free with the angels PD Xtra and DD Soldier... hopefully your deaths will result in much better processes to be put in place so this never happens again.

I don't consider myself handy but installed a Medium Petway brand pet door in my sliding security door. I bought it brand new at an op shop for a quarter of the retail price. It was beige and I spray painted it black (to match my door). I can confirm 5 different dogs (including a lab size one) have bashed and crashed their way through it over the  last 4 years and there is still no damage to it other than some nose art.

 
For an XL doggy door in a security door, PetSafe, Endura Flap, and Hale are top recommendations. PetSafe is affordable and reliable, while Endura Flap offers great insulation and durability. Hale is known for quality and sturdiness, making it ideal for security doors. Look for models that are specifically designed for heavy-duty use and are easy to install. Ensure you match the size to your dog's measurements for a perfect fit. I had to write a complex research paper, and I wasn’t sure how to tackle it. That’s when I found Academized’s https://academized.com/research-paper-writing-service Research Paper Writing Service, and it was a lifesaver. The writer was professional and provided a well-researched paper that met all the guidelines. It was delivered on time, and I was really impressed with the quality. I’ll definitely use this service again for my future research papers. 

Thank you.

This case is groundbreaking .... so tired of dog owners who have dangerous dogs and take NO responsibility.

I agree with you. I feel sorry for the women who got attacked by dogs. I mean it is all dog owner fault because she is the one who knows dog behaivour. I am glad that the baby is safe.

I don't understand why we can't make our own. We have chemicals, autoclaves and gamma sterilisation devices.

Is it the plastic packaging that's not available, or has that knowledge been lost?

I remember making Ringer's solution for our calves if they were dehydrated. 

 

I don't think it will be easy.

They do that everywhere... the rescue I'm with has worked with RSPCA NSW more than once for puppy farmed animals... the most recent being an intake of over 20 oodles. And we weren't the only rescue who took in such numbers, as the farm in question has to remove around 400 dogs as part of their deal with RSPCA to avoid prosecution and fines. 2 of my recent foster mums and bubs also came to us via RSPCA seizures, and my current lot came from AWL, although AWL supplied us with a whole pile of stuff when we took her and the babies in (including that Alice had been desexed when she had her caesarian, she was also vaccinated and chipped by AWL, so we have no actual medical costs to pay for her before rehoming) - RSPCA just hands over the dogs and all the costs relating to their rehab and rehoming fall on the rescues.

 

In the grand scheme of things it's probably better that independent rescues take in animals that RSPCA cannot adequately care for, as at least their chances of survival and responsible rehoming are higher. It would be fair that if RSPCA receives donations for the animals it no longer has, that those donations should be forwarded to those actually incurring the costs, but that is never going to happen... *sigh*

 

 

This is my concern too... too many animals are rehomed from various sources (including RSPCA) with behavioural issues, which are fobbed off as "it's a rescue and had a hard life before we saved it", rather than making some attempt to rectify the issue... grrr!

Wow you are doing such a nice thing which most of the people don't do these days. I really appreciate you for the bottom of my heart.

I can remember a time when if you rang council about a loose/stray dog, they'd send a ranger out to come catch it. Nowadays, unless you have caught and secured it yourself, they won't come... and even then, they come "when they have time", so you are stuck looking after a strange dog until they get around to your issue.

 

Earlier this year (January), I called council about a little dog across the road who is always out and annoying anyone trying to walk up the street. She's a pretty little thing, but territorial. Council sent a couple of rangers out to talk to the owners a couple of days after my first complaint. The little dog is not microchipped or registered (and also not desexed, but that's not illegal), and the rangers have told the owners to get her microchipped and registered, but then haven't bothered to come back and check that it has been done... which it definitely hasn't by my conversations with the owners whenever I've herded the dog back home to stop it getting skittled by cars. I've called council at least twice since my first call, and nothing has been done or even followed up from that first contact back in January. If I could get near enough to the dog, I'd catch it and take it to the pound myself, but the closest I can get is for it to sniff my hand then back off quickly... and I know that if I lunge and try to grab it, I'll get bitten for sure... and it doesn't have a collar, so not much to grab at anyways.

 

I bet that if the dog across the road from me was a larger breed, council would be much more proactive about making the owners keep it contained. It's only a matter of time before it decides to nip/bite someone walking up the street. It's fave people to chase is a family of indian people with very small children. I've had it bail them up outside my house and I had to go out to chase it back home to let them pass safely even... their little kids are only toddler ages and were terrified. Even though this dog is only slightly larger than a chihuahua, if she decides to sink her teeth into a toddler, there will be damage.

Ensuring that those responsible for enforcing these laws are adequately educated and qualified is crucial to effective implementation and fairness in enforcement. Clarity and accessibility of these laws are also essential for pet owners to understand their responsibilities. I needed help with my coursework and turned to https://domypaper.com/discounts for assistance. I was very pleased with the result. The writer delivered a high-quality paper that was well-organized and insightful. The support team was also very helpful and responsive throughout the process. I highly recommend this service!

Any update?

Edit:Seems no
